As 2 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 1: soon as you perform, you're on a stage, and people 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 1: critique you because it's a performance. But if I'm not performing, 4 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,159 Speaker 1: if I'm just being myself here, you don't have the 5 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: right to critique it. 6 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 2: Alexis Wren is an actress, entrepreneur, model, and mental health advocate. 7 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,440 Speaker 2: She starred in movies including Latency and The Enforcer.

That's what 14 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: I felt with all of that, With like investing in 15 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: taxes and crypto, it was so masculine first and foremost. 16 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 1: So it's very masculine, no offense. But we don't need 17 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: like another industry like dominated by masculinity. 18 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 2: I'm Radi Wuka and on my podcast A Really Good Cry, 19 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: we embrace the messy and the beautiful, providing a space raw, 20 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 2: un filtered conversations that celebrate vulnerability and allow you to 21 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: tune in to learn, connect and find comfort together.

Whenever we have met, I feel our 26 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 2: conversations have just been so wonderful. I've always left either 27 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 2: learning something from you or feeling inspired by you in 28 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 2: some way, or feeling like, oh my gosh, I have 29 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 2: so much more to learn in my life because I've 30 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: just seen how you absorb information and how you share 31 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 2: it with people. And so honestly, when I was thinking 32 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 2: about all the things I've learned from you, and I 33 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: don't even know whether you know that I felt that 34 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 2: way about you, but really, when I thought about who 35 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 2: I wanted on, I was like, I need I want 36 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: you to share what you have with whoever is listening, 37 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 2: And so thank you so much for being here. 38 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: So sweet, No, I really mean it. 39 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: And I don't know whether you know this, but the 40 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: one thing that I found incredible and what I was 41 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: really attracted by for you is the way that you 42 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: speak about money and women and finances. And you told 43 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: me about NFTs and all these things which I personally 44 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: and so many women feel fairly uncomfortable dealing with or 45 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 2: becoming comfortable with. So I'd love to hear how you 46 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 2: actually got to that position of feeling so empowered in 47 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: that space. 48 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: I feel like it always goes back to my mom, 49 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: just because she had me question everything in life, Like 50 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: my ability to learn comes from my ability to ask 51 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: good questions. You have to know a little bit about 52 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: something in order to even ask the good questions. So 53 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: I'm always like, when I'm talking about talking to my 54 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: I don't know the correct term for them, but like 55 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: investment advisors, yes, I'm just like, I apologize if this 56 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: is a stupid question and correct me or divert the 57 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: question into what you think I'm trying to say, because 58 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: I'm learning as I'm even creating these sentences. So I 59 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: think it's your ability to be okay with sounding a 60 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: little stupid. It really has helped me because when I've 61 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: stopped judging myself for not knowing, because there's so many 62 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: things about more in like the aspect of business and 63 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: finances that we as women kind of are just everyone 64 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: in general kind of pretends to know because like, like 65 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: I know what that is. Iri totally like Roth iri, like, 66 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: I love that totally, so I've had to just sit down. 67 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: It's almost like you know with writer's block, when you 68 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: just the hardest part is sitting down. That's what I 69 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: felt with all of that, with like investing in taxes 70 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: and crypto, it was like it was so masculine first 71 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: and foremost. It's very masculine. A lot of like bros 72 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: being like, oh, I'm just like, oh great, great, no offense, 73 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: but we don't need like another industry like dominated by masculinity. 74 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: It was really just about getting through that resistance and 75 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: starting to just ask dumb questions. 76 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: It is, yeah, it is like for me, if I'm 77 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: completely honest, I feel like I was able to in 78 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: people's eyes. I leaned into the feminine aspects in inverted 79 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: comments of life, like I love cooking, I love doing 80 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 2: like a lot of the things which people think is. 81 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 3: Part of a feminine nature. 82 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 2: And when it came to business and money, and I 83 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 2: think it's part of a culture thing that I came 84 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 2: from as well, where I felt like that was the 85 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 2: man's job, like that is something the man does and 86 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 2: trained into it. 87 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 3: I also from my mum. 88 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 2: I remember her telling me like when you get to 89 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 2: a certain point in your life, you're going to regret 90 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 2: not knowing, not understanding, and not being in charge of 91 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: your own finances. Like you really will feel that void 92 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: because you will feel like a part of you you 93 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 2: don't have control of. And I still went through that. 94 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 2: And then when I became an entrepreneur in some way 95 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 2: and I started having you know, I created businesses, I 96 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: was still kind of taking my own power away from 97 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 2: myself and giving it away to people because I didn't 98 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 2: believe I had the capability. 99 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 3: To do it. 100 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, because of the way that I had told my mind, 101 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: like you're not good with numbers, you're not good with money, 102 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 2: Just give that away to people and you'll be fine. 103 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: Like you want to do that, I don't want me, 104 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: but like I don't want to. 105 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: But to understand, yes, and to know you can do 106 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: it without like you can still give it away knowing 107 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: that you have other places you want to invest your time. 108 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 2: But at the same time, I want to know, am 109 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 2: I being taken advantage of? How do I even know? 110 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 2: How do I even know where I pay taxes? 111 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: Or what? All those little questions. 112 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 2: I think it's important to know and then give away 113 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: rather than give it away with no knowledge or. 114 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: How crazy is it that school doesn't teach that. 115 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 3: I know that makes me so sad. 116 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: I was mind blow. I was like, they don't usually 117 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: teach you the basics of a credit card or savings 118 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: or like investing in any way. Like people have this 119 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: idea that in order to invest, you have to have 120 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: like millions of dollars, and I'm like, no, you could 121 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: start with literally twenty dollars. It's forty dollars. It's it's 122 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: it's the long term. It's just the sooner you do 123 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: it the better because it's compound compound interests, like over 124 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: your lifetime. So it's not how much you put in, 125 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: it's how early you do it. And there's like even 126 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: I've been learning my parents didn't know this, you know, 127 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: but you can start investing for your child when they're like, 128 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: I don't know the proper terms, but yeah that you 129 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: can like put them under you, so they already have investments. 130 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: They're like going on, yeah, not even saying it's investments 131 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: like this, it's there's so many levels to it. And 132 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: it's my friend who is an accountant. He says, the 133 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: textbook is like a guide. It's not like a list 134 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 1: of rules you have to obey or disobey. It's a 135 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: guide on how to benefit from the system. Yeah. And 136 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: when he told me that, I was like, Okay, that 137 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: takes like this idea of like the system being against 138 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: me in that way. Because knowledge is the best form 139 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: of power. Yeah, in my mind, so, and. 140 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 2: The best form of finding a way out of fear. 141 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: Like you're always scared of things that you don't know. 142 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: You're always scared of the unknown or the possibilities that 143 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 2: could come before they've even happened. And so that's how 144 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 2: I've every time I feel scared of something like financing 145 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 2: that Okay, let me at least be in knowledge, let 146 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: me inform myself, and then it's not this big scary 147 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 2: monster underneath my bed. 148 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 3: It's something that I at least have an understanding of. 149 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. So you keep waiting and waiting and waiting, and 150 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: you're like, oh, I should have done this last year 151 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: and last year, and it just keeps compiling in that way, 152 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: and that feels like not to go at all. Yeah, 153 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: it's just facing it the same way you would face 154 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: going to yoga. Classic. I don't want to go to yoga. 155 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to work out but like I love 156 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: the feeling of power and calmness and peace that I 157 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: feel afterwards. Like That's what I'm training my mind to do, 158 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: is to be able to hold and wait for the 159 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: feeling of satisfaction from something great as opposed to something 160 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: sudden and just you know, like watching TV or doing 161 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: something like that, which all of those have a purpose, Like, yeah, 162 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: of course, but teaching my mind to love those moments 163 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: of the overcoming. Yes, it becomes addicted because we all 164 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: we're all addicts. We're all addicts, So you have to 165 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: change that addict to a habit and then you go 166 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: forth using it. Because we love routine. We love having 167 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: something that we can count on and do every day 168 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: that brings us this sense of safety because the only 169 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: promise in life has changed. So we need to pretend 170 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: I'm with our coffee each morning, like this is my security. 171 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, No, I love that. That's so true. 172 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 2: I find that with myself also, like I find that 173 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 2: I always want things to remain the same, and I 174 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: don't want We don't. 175 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I know then you want, then you 176 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: want paradoxical too confusing. Yeah, we're ridiculous. We like whatever 177 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: we want. And I think that's like what I've been learning. 178 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: I've been obsessed with paradoxes for the last couple of years, 179 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: and it's like this divine paradox of like being both, 180 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: wanting both, like it being both all the time, like 181 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: to a truth is but half truth, like it's there's 182 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: always a pair of opposites, like you are and you're not, 183 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: Like it's the universe isn't isn't at the same time, 184 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: like all of it exists and doesn't at the same time. 185 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 2: I was. I have on my notes about talking to 186 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 2: you about existential stuff, but we've already got this. 187 00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 3: So this is. 188 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 2: Basically you're just a field of so many different incredible things. 189 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 2: And I just love it because we can go from 190 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: talking about finances to talking about are. 191 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 3: You really here? 192 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: Is this the meaning of life? 193 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 3: Like what have we been doing here? 194 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: Because it goes from like this is it? That really 195 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: is it? 196 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 2: And I know you mentioned this before with the finances 197 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 2: about it being a masculine industry, and I wanted to 198 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 2: ask you how you managed to balance your you know, 199 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 2: because every single person, whatever you are, if we are human, 200 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 2: we need to then how to balance our feminine and 201 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 2: masculine within us. We all have both tendencies in us, 202 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: both energies in us. And sometimes when you are a businesswoman, 203 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 2: when you ask someone who is is having to lean 204 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: into that area of your life, it's difficult to balance 205 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 2: that feminine masculine energy. And so I don't know whether 206 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 2: you've felt that or how you've managed to create that 207 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: balance in your life. 208 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, So it was kind of interesting because you think, 209 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 1: and I've seen this so many times with females, like 210 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: when they go into a very masculine, masculine dominated space, 211 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: they tend to become masculine, and we're like, Okay, well 212 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: that's not the solution either, because now we're just bringing 213 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: the same energy. So what I've learned is when I 214 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: feel like I'm in a space that's super masculine dominated, 215 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: I actually lean more into my feminine than I would 216 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: do than anything else because I know that's what's missing. 217 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: Like I always like to look at situations and be like, 218 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: what is the missing ingredient? And can I become that? 219 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: Because then I can effortlessly fit into an experience or 220 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: relationship or because it's we're all made up like our characters, 221 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: our personalities. That's what I've been with acting is like 222 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: the me that I've built is completely made up and 223 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: can be changed and switched around, and so not leaning 224 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: so hard on like the permanence of our identity and 225 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: leaning more into just like what can I transform into 226 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: for this moment to be whole? 227 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 2: I guess yeah, And I love what you said because 228 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: I would have thought that's how That's how I react 229 00:10:55,800 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 2: in situations like I go into an environment that may 230 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 2: be very different to me, and I feel like I 231 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 2: have to adapt to that environment versus being someone who 232 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 2: is bringing something new to the table. You have this 233 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: habit of wanting to fit in, right like especially we're 234 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 2: like how can we Yeah, how can I mold myself 235 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: and adapt myself to fit in rather than stand out? 236 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: And I've actually seen you do that, And that's why 237 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 2: I wanted to bring up because I feel like I've 238 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 2: seen you bring this energy about yourself of confidence and 239 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 2: value in an environment which we walked into this environment. 240 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to give full details environment we do, 241 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: an environment where. 242 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: It was meant to be someone else who was in power, 243 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: like they had the ability to say yes or no 244 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 2: to us about something, and I walked in there fully 245 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 2: ready to be like a surrendered person. 246 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: Also, I know, but I'm not really I basically. 247 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 2: I added nothing to it, but I was there in 248 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 2: moral support. But we walked in and I thought it 249 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: was going to be a kind of Okay, this person 250 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: is going to tell us what they want, and we're 251 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: going to try and adapt to make it happen so 252 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:58,559 Speaker 2: that we get it, but we're probably going to have 253 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 2: to compromise. And Lexis walked in this place, and well, 254 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 2: I walked in and she was already there, but I 255 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: was in all like I was watching her through this situation, 256 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 2: and she managed to fully take power and control of 257 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 2: what was happening in the room when the power dynamic 258 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 2: in a natural setting wouldn't have been that way. 259 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 3: It would have been the other way. 260 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 2: And I just thought that was so I remember talking 261 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: about that to so many people after I was in 262 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 2: that situation with you, because it is so hard to 263 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: embrace exactly who you are and go into an environment 264 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 2: where you should kind of be the one not should be, 265 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 2: but your team is to be. You feel like you 266 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 2: are the less superior person in the room. But you 267 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 2: did that, and like, I think it was such a 268 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 2: beautiful example of how in. 269 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 3: You brought feminine energy. 270 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 2: You didn't even bring in I'm going to meet masculine 271 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 2: with masculine like you didn't do that. You leaned into 272 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: the softness and like you're like that side of things, 273 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 2: And I just thought that was so beautiful to see. 274 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 3: It really was. It was amazing. 275 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: Thank you, Laura and I still talk about that moment. 276 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: It was a great moment. It was a great moment. No, 277 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: I I generally like, first of all, when I was younger, 278 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: I went up to my mom and I was like, 279 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: why do I have to call Steve mister so and so? 280 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: Like why can't I just call him by Steve? And 281 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm like my Mom's like call them Steve, Like I 282 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: don't care, you know, like I know that there's this 283 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: level of like they're here and I'm here. Even when 284 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: I was a child, it was like the parents and me. 285 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 1: My mom kind of always like started to poke at 286 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: me to be like you can be there too, like 287 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: you can meet them too. So I think that element 288 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: really helped, like that belief. I think when everyone's looking 289 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: for someone who's confident, and I've gotten myself into like 290 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: not so good situations because I'm like this person's so confident, 291 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: they must know what they're talking about, you know. So 292 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: I've learned that like confidence is a choice, it's not 293 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: something you cultivate. It's actually something you get after you 294 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: do the thing that people would called being confident. It's 295 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: the feeling you get after that. And then also I've 296 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: learned a lot as far as marketing. I think there's 297 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: like similar with like acting advice and parenting advice, learning 298 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: about marketing and like people's subconscious desires and behaviors, and 299 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: like it's it's a trillion dollar industry. Like we drive 300 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: down sense at Boulevard. It's like and I'm like, I 301 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: don't text and drive for sure, God, Like you know, 302 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: it's just like everyone's trying to get our attention. So 303 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: I think there's a level of like knowing that people 304 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: are looking for someone who truly believes in something and 305 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: feels something. I love playing into being a woman and 306 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: having that presence because I think that divine feminine actually 307 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: is really powerful and really more sturdy than I think 308 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: people realize. Like as much as it's like nurturing and 309 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: open hearted, it's also and creative, it's also very solid 310 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: and surrounding. And how I felt like. 311 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 2: The feeling and the nature of Mother Earth and how 312 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 2: we are grounded by her and how she encapsulates all 313 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: of us. It's like, that's the same qualities that the 314 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 2: divine feminine has in us and in everybody. I loved 315 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 2: watching you do that because it felt like it allowed 316 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 2: me to lean into that so much more. And I 317 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 2: think all of that comes with you know, that comes 318 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 2: with being able to be emotional at the right times, 319 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: being able to be vulnerable at the right times. Like 320 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 2: when you end up being able to lean into that, 321 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 2: you see it as a strength rather than a weakness. 322 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, especially in those environments. Have you like on your 323 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: journey because now as you've become an entrepreneur and now 324 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: you have this podcast, like what hurt not hurdles, but 325 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: what things have you started to experience that is like 326 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: new in the space of business for you as an entrepreneur. 327 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 2: Honestly everything, Like I never saw myself as being a businesswoman. 328 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: I never in my life grew up and was like 329 00:15:58,600 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 2: even I thought I was going to be a die 330 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 2: in a hospital number one, That's what I was training 331 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: to be. And even as that, I never saw myself 332 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 2: as a businesswoman. I saw myself as a healthcare worker, 333 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 2: and so in that respect, there was never a oh, 334 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: I'm an entrepreneur or I'm you know, anything like that. 335 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 2: You know, yeah, exactly, even that movement, right, that's what 336 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 2: you've said, the walking down with a briefcase type of person. 337 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 2: And when I ended up being kind of and I 338 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: didn't say thrown into this because everything happened for a reason, 339 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 2: but it was an unexpected turn that I took in 340 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 2: my journey of becoming this. And so I have this 341 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 2: tendency to feel like I'm living someone else's life. And 342 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 2: I don't know if you've ever felt that way, but 343 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 2: I always I have this feeling that I'm almost like, 344 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 2: it's not imposterous, A little bit of. 345 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 3: That, I guess. 346 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: I guess it wouldn't be a betame way to put it. 347 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 2: I look at my life and I'm like, I don't 348 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 2: even know whether this is the life I was supposed 349 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 2: to be living. 350 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 3: It feels so distant to me. 351 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 2: It's almost like I'm learning how to live my life 352 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 2: versus feeling like it's something natural that I'm doing. And 353 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 2: so I've gone through a lot of ups and downs 354 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: with it, where and I go through a breakdown like 355 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 2: every month I'm like, I think I should just like 356 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 2: switch on my Instagram and just like go. And I 357 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: have this thing of honestly being like, maybe I should 358 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 2: just go to India and just really figure out who 359 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 2: I am. And I'm like, running away to figure out 360 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 2: who I am is not the answer. 361 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: But oh so that's a trick question. There's a trag question. 362 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 1: There's a trig question. But I have I have found 363 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: it really difficult. 364 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 2: And you know, sitting in when people ask me to 365 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 2: be on panels for example of being an entrepreneur or 366 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 2: a female this, I'm like, I feel uncomfortable. Yeah, I 367 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 2: think I don't think you understand. I really knew it this, 368 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 2: I've got nothing to say, and so I'm starting to 369 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 2: learn how to build my confidence in this area. I 370 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 2: still feel like I'm at the beginning even doing this. 371 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, there's always that sense of not 372 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: knowing whether you have something to say, or not knowing 373 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 2: whether what you say is valuable. And I shared about 374 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 2: this recently where the only thing that pushed me to 375 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 2: do it was knowing that whatever I was learning is 376 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 2: wasted just being in me, like whatever I have, whatever 377 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 2: I've learned, whatever experiences I've been through. Just harnessing it 378 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 2: within me is not useful. It's actually detrimental because it 379 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 2: creates ego in your body, like it creates energy and 380 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 2: stagnant energy. 381 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 3: Everything should flow. 382 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's also something I wanted to ask you, like, 383 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 2: how did you how did you even get to a 384 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 2: point where you felt confident in your abilities and felt 385 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 2: like you were able to not only share it amongst 386 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 2: the people that you know, create this incredible community, which, 387 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: by the way, Alexis has an amazing community called We 388 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 2: Are Warriors and it's all females, and it's empowering, and 389 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 2: it's all the things that you'd want to learn that 390 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 2: you don't get to in school. They teach in that 391 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 2: and they discuss in that. But how did you get 392 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 2: to a point of knowing that you have this information 393 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: but feel comfortable enough to open it out to so 394 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 2: many other people and and be so you stand in 395 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 2: your power a lot. 396 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 3: That's what I love about you. 397 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: I think when you don't give yourself a choice. I 398 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: know that sounds like yeah, the podcast, Well, first of all, 399 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: it helped because the community was gated, and so I 400 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 1: felt very safe in that sense where it wasn't like 401 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: because you know, with being in the spot for ten 402 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: years now, it's like everything I do it can't be 403 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: a test run, I know, and it's like, I know, 404 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: can be a test around, but it has to be 405 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: great or people are going to be like, what the 406 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: hell is she doing? Like she starts acting, she has 407 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 1: to be great, like you know, and then there's that 408 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: idea of people you know of course, like of course 409 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm privileged, of course, and so there's that level of 410 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: like she just got put there and all of that. 411 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 1: So being able to learn how to truly like and 412 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: that's paradoxical learn how to be a teacher being a 413 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: student to learning how to be a teacher was so 414 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: special in that community because the girls held me just 415 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: as much as I held them. Like it it's very interactive, 416 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: like the girls raise their hand and we talk about 417 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: different subjects. It's not you know, I'm not. I've gotten 418 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: to the point where I can really host like a 419 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: full workshop without someone coming up because it's but it's repetition. 420 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: I think one of the biggest secrets to anything is repetition. 421 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: It's not like, yes, talent matters to an extent, but 422 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: like if you can just be consistent. I've been doing 423 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: the Friday Call for three years now, you know, and 424 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: it's like because of that I've been I'm a better speaker. 425 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: I'm more confident in who I am because and this 426 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: is something I'm working on actually recently. And I want 427 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: to know your opinion about this is for so long 428 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 1: my life has been a performance that I've almost gone 429 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: kind of like the anti hero. It's like an anti 430 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: performance because as soon as you perform, you're on a 431 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: stage and people critique you because it's a performance. But 432 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: if I'm not performing, if I'm just being myself here, 433 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: you don't have the right to critique it. You might, 434 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 1: but it's none of my business anymore because I wasn't performing, 435 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: if that makes sense. Where it's like a weird like 436 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: switch and perception. So that's what I've been testing with 437 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: myself right now, is was that a performance or was 438 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: that me speaking from an authentic place? And finding the 439 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: difference of that is the levity because it takes the 440 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: weight off of the judgments or opinions of how I 441 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 1: said something or if I said something wrong. Also not attached. 442 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 1: I have this one of my favorite quotes in the world. 443 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: I found it when I was like seventeen on Tumblr. 444 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: It's called strong beliefs loosely held, and I think that's 445 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: just how I live my entire life, where it's like 446 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: I have very strong beliefs, but if you give me 447 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: something better, yeah, like I'm gonna take that, like I 448 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: don't care, like but it's but I do have strong beliefs, 449 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 1: but I'm very just like how I am with my 450 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: identity nowadays, Like I don't even with my style. It's 451 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: like I tried so hard to find myself out. I 452 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: was like, I'm streetwear, I'm this, I'm and it's just 453 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: like what really depends on the day. Yeah, you can 454 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: do it all like and that's that's with personality, that's 455 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: with speaking, that's with fashion, that's with identity, Like it 456 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: all can change and evolve and be everything or nothing 457 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: at the same time. And I think that's what's so beautiful. 458 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: And I think for me, it's just been finding out 459 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: where I can take the weight off. And I think 460 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: you understand this too, where when you're speaking and something 461 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: comes over you, a lot of people call it flow 462 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 1: state and science. To me, that's channeling. That's not me anymore, 463 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: like and people say, wow, what you did was amazing. Like, 464 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that experience you were talking about was Laura, 465 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: Like that was I don't really think that was me. 466 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: That was just needed. That's I was just open enough 467 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: to be able to receive what needed to be said 468 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: in that experience for us to get what was supposed 469 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 1: to happen. And that also is huge to take the 470 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: weight off. It's like, yes, I want to influence every 471 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: scenario I'm in for my desire, but like whatever's meant 472 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 1: to be is meant to be, and so if I'm 473 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: supposed to say something to push this forward, it will 474 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: happen because I'm open, But that's still not up to me. 475 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: None of it's up to me, nor is it my responsibility. 476 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 1: And so I know that sounds weird because it's like, 477 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: these are the things I'm saying and it's coming through me, 478 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: but they're the weights off now because I'm like I 479 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: have a partnership with the all God whatever. 480 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can honestly relate to that so much. The 481 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 2: reason I actually s thoughted the podcast was because I 482 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 2: was going on other people's podcast and I would be 483 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 2: so nervous to go on and I'd be thinking about, 484 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 2: like I don't even know what I'm going to say. 485 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 2: I have no idea what's even going to come out 486 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 2: of my mouth. And it was weird for me because 487 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,360 Speaker 2: I went in so not confident, and I would come 488 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 2: out of these podcasts and I would speak to my 489 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 2: mum or whoever. I'd be like, I didn't even know 490 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: that I had that in me. I had no way 491 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 2: I knew things from yourself. Yes, that's yeah, that's why 492 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 2: I love it. 493 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: That's why I do the community. That's why I like, 494 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: I'm obviously going to start a prokram too, because it's 495 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: like this is way too fine. 496 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just it. 497 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: But I went on and I'd listened back people, what 498 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: did you talk about? 499 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 2: And I was like, I honestly cannot remember the words 500 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 2: that came out of my mouth. And then I watch 501 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 2: your back and I'm like, wow, I didn't even know 502 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 2: I had the ability to vocalize how I felt or 503 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 2: what I knew in that way. And that's the reason 504 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 2: I ended up starting it, because I loved having those comments. 505 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 2: I would come out of those podcasts and I'd be like, 506 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 2: that was so beautiful to be able to open my 507 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 2: heart in. 508 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: That way exactly. 509 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,239 Speaker 2: But in that way where you end up feeling like 510 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,239 Speaker 2: I loved going in not knowing what I was going 511 00:23:59,320 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 2: to talk about. 512 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 3: I loved going into. 513 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: John knowing being okay with the unknown. Yes, let's the 514 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: channeling happens so much easier. 515 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 3: And the surrenders to it. 516 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: Ann Yeah, Jesus Christ, it is the amount of time 517 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: I have gotten in my own way. Yeah, I'm just 518 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: like I know what to say, and God's like, yeah. 519 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 2: Exactly, No, It's it's true, and that flow stake comes 520 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 2: and I feel whenever I think about I feel like 521 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 2: I have been in that situation where I come out 522 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 2: and I feel amazing about what's been shared and I've 523 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 2: opened up my heart. That's happened on Jay's podcast where 524 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: he asked me a question about our relationship and I 525 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 2: answer and he's like, I didn't even know that you 526 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 2: felt the way like oh crap, Like, oh no, I'm 527 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,360 Speaker 2: so sorry. And I actually did that on our last podcast, 528 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 2: and it was almost to a point where I was like, 529 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 2: should I get that taken off because I don't know 530 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 2: whether that's going to come across right, But I didn't. 531 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 2: But it was that's how open when you get into 532 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 2: a conversation and you get asked questions that that spark 533 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 2: something in you, or that triggers something in you, and. 534 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: It forces you to show up. I also think very 535 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: something especially I really learned with you and Jay was 536 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: shortly after that meeting, you invited me and my friends. 537 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm over here, Yeah for that like small gathering, and 538 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: so much happens when you create a space for it. 539 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: And I noticed that when I'm going to butcher her 540 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: name Janavie Janaviy love her by the way. When she 541 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 1: plays rise that was like one of my old time 542 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: favorite songs in twenty twenty, so I was like crying. 543 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: It was the space that you created that invited the 544 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 1: moments and the channel. So like even now, it's like 545 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: you've created the space in which now it can come. 546 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: So I think, you know, I make it a really 547 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure everyone does this to an extent, but it's 548 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: like I like incense, I like candles, Like I make 549 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: sure that I'm creating a place where spirit like wants 550 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: to come. 551 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and when you feel at ease and at comfort, 552 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 2: because as soon as anxiety comes over or as soon 553 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 2: as you're too much in your head, you almost forget 554 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,679 Speaker 2: what you even have to offer. And I get in 555 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 2: that space a lot where it's almost that something else 556 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 2: is I'm not allowing myself to be and to accept 557 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 2: my own self because I'm so nervous about how I'm 558 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: showing up that actually the version of me that I 559 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: love and that I actually want to be shared is 560 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 2: almost suppressed because I'm thinking too much about what I'm 561 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 2: showing up as and who I am. 562 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: Oh, it's so true, and that's what I've been battling with. 563 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: But like seeing in myself, especially with you know, podcasts 564 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: in general. What I've also seen is I actually learned 565 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: this in a summit last month. Forced deep talk is 566 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: this same coin of small talk. Yeah, And I can't 567 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: tell you how many times I'm in a conversation where 568 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, I know you're trying to get the point 569 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: across that, like you're spiritual and deep, and like I 570 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: respect that this is not authentic. And so learning to 571 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: not force the vulnerability has been huge for me because, 572 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: you know, with people wanting to monetize my story on 573 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: their own platforms whatever, and it's all good and it's 574 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: like I invite it. Sometimes there's been scenario, you know, 575 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: when you have a vulnerability hangover and you're like, that 576 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: starts to feel like a script, not who you are. Yes, 577 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 1: I had to learn that, not the hard way, but 578 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: I learned it recently and I was like, no more, 579 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 1: because I think what we're now looking for is just 580 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: good conversations. 581 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 3: Good conversation and. 582 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,120 Speaker 1: No, yes, exactly good conversations. 583 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 3: But also when you end up. 584 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 2: And I heard this quote, and this is something that 585 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 2: I've always tried to every time I feel like I 586 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 2: move away from it, I tried to go towards it again. 587 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,479 Speaker 2: It's kind of like my, what's the word like, northern 588 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 2: north light? What's the word for it? 589 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 3: North light? 590 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: No, thank you. 591 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 2: Integrity is when your words, your actions, and your thoughts 592 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 2: are all aligned. And I've noticed that whenever I've heard 593 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 2: people speak in that way, and whenever i've felt something 594 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 2: when people speak, it's because those three are in our 595 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 2: in alignment, and so whenever and that's why I feel 596 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 2: whenever I've seen you in that state, whenever I've heard 597 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 2: people speak and it's affected me, it only affects the 598 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 2: heart when all three of those are in line. That's 599 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,360 Speaker 2: when you have the most power to penetrate someone else's heart, 600 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,360 Speaker 2: to actually affect them and inspire them deeply. Is when 601 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: you're living it, you're breathing it, you're saying it, and 602 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 2: you're feeling it at the same time. 603 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: It takes a lot of prep. It takes a little 604 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: bit practice of well, consistency, consistent showing up like every morning. 605 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: I was writing in my journal the other day and 606 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: I'm just like, every morning, like I conquer me and 607 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: my connection basically because it's like every morning all I 608 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 1: want is connection, and yet the little in my connection. Yeah, 609 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: like this little me and me is just like no, 610 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: like I don't know, like running away from the one 611 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: thing I want. I'm just like this all day until 612 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: I finally I sit down and I write, or I 613 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: finally do the thing I want, or I dance or 614 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: whatever it is. But it's like, we want connections so 615 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: bad and it's so funny that we just run around 616 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: circles like all days. So having that worth ethic to 617 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: show up for yourself in that way is what's created 618 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: me today and confidence in you because it is the confidence. 619 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: It is because if you prove to yourself, you can 620 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: show up for yourself. 621 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 3: It's true. 622 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 2: And I realized that's why I didn't have faith in 623 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 2: myself like that's why I had this habit of giving 624 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 2: everybody else my power or believing that somebody else knew 625 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 2: me better or could say things better than me, because 626 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 2: I was not completing things. I was not every single 627 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 2: day following through with what I said I was going 628 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 2: to do, and so the relationship that I had with 629 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 2: myself was so terrible. And why would I believe myself, 630 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 2: just like I wouldn't believe a guy who kept telling 631 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:34,479 Speaker 2: me I'm going to be there at this time. I'm 632 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 2: going to be there at this time. I'm going to 633 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 2: show up in this way, and they never show up. 634 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 2: But for some reason, I keep thinking I should have 635 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 2: a good relationship with myself without doing that work. And 636 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 2: so I've been working on that, like actually getting things started, 637 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 2: Like I have this fear of starting things, which I 638 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 2: think a lot of people have. Podcast book, all the 639 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 2: things that I've done, it's been what you said, throwing 640 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 2: myself into it. 641 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: Myself say it out loud, You're like, oh shit, yeah, exactly, 642 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: you finally say out loud. 643 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 2: You have people who make you accountable. You create that 644 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 2: environment where where you actually have accountability, and I think 645 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 2: a lot of the time we end up not telling 646 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 2: people things or shying away from even if we're like, oh, 647 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 2: you know, even if it's something like I want to 648 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 2: get healthy and I want to go for a walk 649 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 2: for thirty minutes every day, telling someone or at least 650 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 2: telling one person or telling your community that this is 651 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 2: what I'm trying to do. It makes you accountable and 652 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 2: it helps give you that. And it doesn't mean that 653 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 2: people shouldn't give you grace. But if you struggle with 654 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 2: accountability to yourself, it's useful being able to share that 655 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 2: with other people so that you have at least that 656 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: starts you off. 657 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: It hurts what I have to do. Then what happens 658 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: is that once you get into that routine, then you 659 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: can start to build trust with your intuition. Yeah, and 660 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: you can say, okay, I've been so consistent with myself today, 661 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: i don't really feel good. I'm not going to go 662 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: on that walk today. It doesn't mean that I'm not 663 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: abiding to the you know, this work ethic and this 664 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: trust in myself. It's just I'm listening to my intuition now. 665 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: So there's like that progression from like I trust myself 666 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 1: now to finish things and get things done and do 667 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: things and change and grow, and then you have this beautiful, 668 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: you know, leeway where you can just be like I'm 669 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: okay today and not have guilt because you trust yourself now, Yes, 670 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: and your voice gets stronger. The more you actually allow 671 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: the rest it can actually reworst, you know. 672 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 2: Yes, Then the more you end up listening to your 673 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: own voice or actually trying to tune into it, the 674 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 2: louder that gets and the quieter other people's voices get. 675 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: And again that's something I'm trying to practice because I've 676 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 2: quietened my own voice for so long that I am 677 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 2: trying to tell it it's okay, Like it's okay for 678 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 2: you to speak, it's okay for you to to actually 679 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 2: voice how you're feeling because I'm here to listen to 680 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,479 Speaker 2: you now, and it's having like everything that you have 681 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 2: in a relationship with someone else. It's just I don't 682 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 2: know why that that coin doesn't drop, And I feel 683 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 2: like I'm getting all these phrases on coin doesn't drop. 684 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 2: I don't know why this is going to be like 685 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 2: a common thing I think in the podcast where. 686 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 3: It's like getting those phrases that pin the pin, not the. 687 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: Coin, pin the wolf that cried boy. 688 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know why that doesn't drop earlier. 689 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 2: That Actually, like the more you listen to yourself, the 690 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 2: stronger your connection with yourself gets. And what you were 691 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 2: saying about your intuition, it's hard to know what is 692 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 2: intuition and what's not if you aren't spending that time 693 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 2: in that relationship. 694 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: Exactly like this, that concept of intuitive eating. I didn't 695 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: understand it forever because I didn't trust myself, nor did 696 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: I have a relationship with my intuition. So you have 697 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: to build that trust in respect, and then you can 698 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: trust the intuition and then you can move with the 699 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: current of your life as opposed to moving against it 700 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: because you build the current that you're moving in, but 701 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: you have to build it for a very long time. 702 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: And then I think there's so many different Just like 703 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: how we have seasons on you know, Earth and stuff, 704 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: it's the same way with us, Like we have seasons 705 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: where we're hibernating and going through deeper, darker work, or 706 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: sometimes we're you know, flying on top of the world. 707 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: And it's for me, it's learning to actually accept where 708 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: I am as opposed to being like I'm working so much, God, 709 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: I wish I was in bed I'm in bed. I 710 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: wish I was working like that. I hate and I've 711 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: really made it a priority to not swing with the 712 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: pendulum and actually become the pendulum and truly just be 713 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: like I'm embrace it and one hundred percent embrace it. 714 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,239 Speaker 1: And like, you know, how we were speaking, we were 715 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: going to go to New York next week separately, but hey, 716 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: we can just say you these to go together. Yeah, 717 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: like that is starting to be a very packed week, 718 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: and it's like now I'm so I'm enjoying this week 719 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: of like I get to go home and have dinner, 720 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: you know, and just relax and trusting that I'm going 721 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 1: to show up at the right time. Because I think 722 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: also to my sister Ali went through this last week 723 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: where she was like, I'm tired today, like I shouldn't 724 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: be tired today, And I was like, but you have 725 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: nothing to do today. So I think your body is 726 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: saying it's safe to just stress. So stop thinking that 727 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: you have to always be on and trust that when 728 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: you need to be on, you will, yes, and so 729 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: that will just that will release everything. And so now 730 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: when I feel tired, when I have tired days, I'm like, okay, 731 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 1: Like it's great. It's kind of like a woman's period. 732 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: It's like she's never betrayed me. I'm always terrified were 733 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: just gonna come, But she's never betrayed me so far, 734 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: so we're good. But it's like it's that it's just 735 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: trusting that it's happening now because it can, yes, and 736 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: then when you need to show up in a different way, 737 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: you will. And separating that has been huge because it's 738 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: taken once again that guilt. Yes, of like I shouldn't 739 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: be tired right now? What's wrong? Should I power through this? 740 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 1: Like where's the caffeine? 741 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 2: And they do say that when you're in tune with 742 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 2: your body, your body knows when you're about to take 743 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 2: a break, or even if your mind knows that this 744 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 2: is when a holiday's coming up, or vacation's coming up, 745 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 2: or there's time to breathe. That's actually when a lot 746 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 2: of people get illnesses or they end up getting colds 747 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 2: and coughs, because they're in the state of their mind 748 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 2: knows they can only I'm able to rest. Finally, I'm 749 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 2: able to feel. But obviously it's not convenient because you're 750 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 2: on vacation and you're ill. But a lot of people 751 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 2: do get that. People have found that when they end 752 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 2: up actually relaxing their body, that's when their body feels 753 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 2: like it's okay for me to show you what's from. 754 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that too, Like when you get more 755 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: software and introspective and grounded into your body. I have, 756 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: you know, friends who are like, I'm just so sensitive now, 757 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 1: and I was like, that's good. That's a good sign. 758 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 1: And accept that sensitivity because we're so used to, you know, 759 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: to an extent, like being numb as the goal as 760 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: opposed to swinging and being the pendulum. 761 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 2: I love what you said about that, because you can 762 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 2: sometimes fall into that trap of oh, I've got a 763 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 2: lot going on and there's so much that I have 764 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 2: to do, versus being like, I'm so grateful that I 765 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 2: have And actually touched on something that. 766 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 3: I heard you say. 767 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 2: I think it was on the Weah Warriors page, and 768 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 2: it was about when you get opportunities in your life 769 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 2: that come to you that you've been wanting, even if 770 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 2: they don't end up happening. Instead of you saying I 771 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 2: didn't get that or this didn't happen in my life, 772 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 2: you say, I'm so grateful that life even showed me 773 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:44,320 Speaker 2: this was possible. 774 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: I didn't even know it was possible. Yeah, I think 775 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: it's that whole concept of being ready to be ready, 776 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,359 Speaker 1: just being happy and being ready. I think I think 777 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: especially with girls, you know, when you're about to go 778 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 1: on a vacation, here's something everyone can relate to, and 779 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 1: you're like, I can get my hair done, I'll give nail. 780 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: It's that preparation that's so fun. That getting ready before 781 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 1: the event. All of that is also a reflection of 782 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: manifestation in life. And so when I learn that through 783 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 1: like this one experience where I was going to get 784 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 1: this huge campaign and I did, and I was like, 785 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: I didn't even know that they were thinking of me exactly, 786 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: Like that's so kind and maybe not this time, but 787 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 1: to now know that that's possible, and then also having 788 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 1: the deep, deep belief that whatever is coming in replace 789 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: of that is even better because it's the hard part 790 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: to swallow that it's a really hard pill to swallow, 791 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: but like it's my favorite thing to believe is like 792 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 1: life just keeps getting better. 793 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 3: How do you balance that? 794 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 2: Because when you were saying that, I was thinking, I 795 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 2: every time I get an opportunity, I'm like, I can't 796 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 2: believe I got. 797 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: That, Like, but how do you how do you balance 798 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't. 799 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 3: Even know, Like how did I even get on their radar? 800 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 3: How does this person even know? 801 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: Way? 802 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 3: Like, are you sure they've got the right person? 803 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 2: So how do you balance that kind of the thought 804 00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:00,320 Speaker 2: process that I'm having versus changing it in to a 805 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 2: positive thing of like, it's not because you doubted yourself 806 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 2: that you can't believe it. I feel like I doubt myself, 807 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 2: and that's why I am surprised that, Oh wow, they 808 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 2: even thought about me. 809 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 3: Yours is like, oh wow, I can't believe they thought 810 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 3: about me. 811 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 1: My belief is like I already believe in myself. I 812 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: already see myself, and so when people, you know, give 813 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 1: me an opportunity, I'm just like, oh great, you see 814 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,319 Speaker 1: me too, Like that's my belief because I've worked so hard, 815 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: and so it's like I like, I truly love myself 816 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: because I've put through so much work, and so for me, 817 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 1: it's more like, oh, like you see it too, Like cool, 818 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 1: And that sounds I guess you could a lot of 819 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 1: people could look at that from like a negative, you know, 820 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 1: maybe conceited perspective. But it's it's a groundedness and an 821 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: unwaveringness in the potential of joy that I can bring 822 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: to others experiences. 823 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 3: And what gave you that? 824 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 2: Because I think this would be really helpful for people, 825 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 2: and I would love to know, like what would the 826 00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 2: few things I know? Consistency is something we spoke about 827 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 2: being with yourself, building up confidence and trust in yourself. 828 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 1: Your community is a reflection of you. So like if 829 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 1: you have friends that are just amazing, yeah, by yourself 830 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: on the back, because you're a reflection of them. Like 831 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: I have literally the coolest family like ever, and they 832 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: are all wanting to become legends in life, because why not? 833 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,320 Speaker 1: You know, Like that's always what I lean towards, is 834 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: just like why not, why not like be the top 835 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: level in this video game? You know? Why not? Like 836 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: it's like we're going to be you know, we're saying 837 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: goodbye either way, so you might as well give a 838 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: hundred percent. And then also like learning that it's a 839 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 1: paradox where it's like I'm giving one hundred percent, but 840 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 1: I'm also practicing non attachment. Yes, paradoxical once again, paradoxes. Yeah, 841 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: all truths through the half truths and so like it's 842 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: definitely the work ethic that you have, and that doesn't 843 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: have to be in work. Like for me, my trust 844 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: in myself comes from my ability to use my body. 845 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 1: I wouldn't know how deeply I can invest myself into 846 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 1: some thing if it wasn't for me being a ballerina 847 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: for the last ten years. 848 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 3: So you know, like lots of commitments, a lot of commitmency. 849 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,280 Speaker 1: And maybe it might not be more of a physical 850 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: work ethic, it still proves to me that I can 851 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: do something one hundred percent exactly. So whatever it is, 852 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 1: find something you can do one hundred percent, Just show 853 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: yourself that you can do something. I never kind of 854 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: seep into E seep into everything else because everything is everything, 855 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 1: it's all connected, it's all true. You know, either everything 856 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: is sacred or none of it is. And I just 857 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: I decided that all of it is. So if I 858 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,240 Speaker 1: can find things that I want to give a hundred 859 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: percent of myself into, things that are worth one hundred 860 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: percent of myself, come. 861 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 3: To me, yes, yeah, come to me. No, that's so true. 862 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 2: I do think that when you end up and picking 863 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 2: one area of your life, like okay, let's say your 864 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 2: whole life is shambles. Let's say every part of your 865 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 2: life right now. Let's just say every single part of 866 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 2: your life right now you do not feel is going well. 867 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: I have this saying called hit rock bottom as fast 868 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: as possible. One of the girls in my communitiesaid that, 869 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,399 Speaker 1: and I think that's so genius because I'm like, once 870 00:39:58,440 --> 00:39:59,800 Speaker 1: you're down on your knees, book. 871 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, stay there, but then there's also only upwards that 872 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 2: you can get right. That's what I like. 873 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: Hit rock because it's only up in there. Just go, like, 874 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: stop trying to hold on to something that's not in flow. 875 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 1: I think people are so scared of pain when they're 876 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: experiencing more pain from trying not to be in pain 877 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: than actually just hit you know what I mean? Yeah, 878 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 1: just fall so that you can get back up exactly. 879 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:23,800 Speaker 2: Go. 880 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 1: Yeah. 881 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 2: I think even if you just pick one area of 882 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 2: your life, like pick one thing in your life, like 883 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 2: you said, to be consistent with, to commit to, to. 884 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 3: Value, to really put you all into show yourself. 885 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: Related to that body. Yes, health, whatever it is. 886 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 2: I'm not sament with working. I said, okay, when I decided, 887 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 2: every single morning, every single day, I need movement in 888 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 2: my life and I've committed to that movement. I've realized 889 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 2: now I can't live without it. But it's also helped 890 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 2: me realize, like other people say to me, wow, you're 891 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 2: so like committed to having that in your life, and 892 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 2: I think, yes, if I can be committed to having 893 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 2: that in my life, I know I can channel that 894 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 2: same energy into this and in this and in this. 895 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 2: It's just whether I have made the choice and and 896 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 2: made it a priority in my life to do so. 897 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 1: Because the vibration is the same vibrating, like it's just 898 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: you know, when we realize that nothing solid, everything's just 899 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,839 Speaker 1: vibrating at different rates. Yeah, everything has a rhythm. Then 900 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: you realize that if you just get yourself into a 901 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 1: certain vibration, it's going to link into everything else in 902 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: your life. That also took weight off of my life. 903 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,320 Speaker 1: There was a huge belief that I have for a 904 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 1: very long time, which is like you have to struggle 905 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 1: and work hard to be successful. Yes, that belief not fun, 906 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: don't believe it anymore. But there's a difference between hard 907 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 1: work and working hard, And for me that was huge 908 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: when I realized, like I actually really enjoy giving one 909 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: hundred percent of myself, but I don't like hard work. 910 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 1: Distinguishing that too, and then knowing where you would like 911 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: to work hard in your life, like really dedicate yourself 912 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: once again. Maybe the part of your life that you 913 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,800 Speaker 1: were trying so hard to put the pieces together just 914 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 1: needed you to change your perspective completely, because it's not 915 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: about trying to shift your thoughts, it's about shifting completely 916 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: away from it. Like that's what manifestation talks about so much. 917 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:14,360 Speaker 1: It's like you're not don't deny what is, like transmute 918 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 1: it into something higher like alchemize it, you know. 919 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 2: I mean, I love when you talk about manifestation as well. 920 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 2: It also helps you detach from things from the results 921 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 2: of things because when you receive it, you understand that 922 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 2: it's given to you from a higher place, right, like 923 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 2: to be able to receive And again, I feel like 924 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 2: I've had goods and bads of feeling like a person 925 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 2: watching into my life. Being that person who's like, this 926 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 2: doesn't feel like my life because it also makes me 927 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 2: feel so detached from what I receive and what I 928 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 2: don't get and what. 929 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,800 Speaker 1: I want to say, like enjoying any of it. 930 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like I. 931 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,280 Speaker 2: Just appreciate it, but I then I'm also very aware 932 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 2: of like, and I think also, and I'm sure you 933 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 2: can relate to this. When you end up having being 934 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 2: around people who have had extreme success in different parts 935 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 2: of their life, or have in what other people eyes, 936 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 2: is everything that you could possibly ever want, you then 937 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 2: also see that being at that place doesn't bring that 938 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 2: joy and contentment that you actually are looking for unless 939 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,320 Speaker 2: you are channeling it in that way and unless you 940 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 2: are detaching from the perception of it and the fruits 941 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 2: of it you're actually choosing to live through like the 942 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 2: essence of what you're receiving from it, Like what is 943 00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 2: it actually doing for my spirit? 944 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 1: For my heart? 945 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 2: How am I being able to channel that and use 946 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 2: that in my offering to other people? And so I 947 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 2: think I've seen that so much where you can get 948 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 2: everything materially and still be so deficient internally, that I 949 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 2: am very aware of that, to the point where I 950 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 2: try to always remember that every single day, where I'm like, yes, 951 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,840 Speaker 2: I love living here, and I love the luxuries that 952 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 2: I've eventually managed to get in my life. But if 953 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 2: those things go away, is it going to affect my 954 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 2: heart or my spirit? No, it's not in any way 955 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 2: and so it's actually you can appreciate, you can have 956 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 2: so much deep gratitude for everything that you have, but 957 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 2: understand and there's a place for each thing, Like know 958 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 2: that material things will bring you material benefits. Know that 959 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 2: the spiritual things that you do will actually fuel and 960 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,319 Speaker 2: nourish your heart. Know that love can fuel your heart, 961 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:15,240 Speaker 2: but the material things will only bring material benefits exactly. 962 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,839 Speaker 2: And that there's it's you have to learn that those 963 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 2: things that can be temporary and life. 964 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:23,760 Speaker 1: Are fantastic too. They are the material stations, fantastic. 965 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 2: Temporary, and so you're looking for permanent happiness with things 966 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 2: that are temporary, and that's where we end up kind 967 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:33,040 Speaker 2: of losing our losing our way of putting energy into 968 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 2: the wrong things or or putting, yeah, our energy and 969 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 2: focus into the wrong. 970 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 3: Things and expecting the wrong thing in return. 971 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: Exactly. It's like relationship, yeah, yeah, exactly exactly. There's this 972 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: quote that my god sister told me Ali. I'm not 973 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 1: sure where it's from, but she's pity the rich and famous, 974 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 1: as they have nothing to butt their head against. And 975 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,800 Speaker 1: I think to an extent, it's like that is true. 976 00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: Like when you quote unquote have everything, there's nothing to 977 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 1: go up against, and so then you start creating these 978 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: things to go up against that it's what we call 979 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,439 Speaker 1: drama and these things that don't really And so I'm 980 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 1: just grateful and I think that's why. You know, when 981 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: you build that work ethic with yourself, you get to 982 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: learn how to overcome and like rise and that rising 983 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 1: is the best high in life I've ever experienced. Like 984 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: that and thinking new thoughts. Love that, But that rise 985 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,320 Speaker 1: is to me the epitome of success. Like I just 986 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,800 Speaker 1: want to continue feeling that and then so letting go 987 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: of the idea of awards or these you know, different 988 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 1: levels in society, like all of that is wonderful because 989 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 1: I think they're good gauges on things and it's fun 990 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: to have. But that that is a benefit of the rising. 991 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 2: And I do find though that the more that you 992 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,839 Speaker 2: end up getting in This is a notion that I've 993 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 2: heard through all my friends who as they are gaining 994 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 2: more abundance in their life, you have more of a 995 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 2: fear of losing it. 996 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 1: And that's something I've been dealing with the recently. 997 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, you have this like and I know even my 998 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 2: sister or my my friends who feel like, oh my gosh, 999 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 2: my life. I've got everything that I want in my life. 1000 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 2: I have my husband, I have my children, I have 1001 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 2: this life that feels almost too perfect. Something's going to 1002 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 2: go wrong, Like I feel that, and I've had conversations 1003 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 2: with people where they're literally crying, like this feels too good, 1004 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 2: this feels too good to be true, and I am 1005 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 2: so scared for my like that something is going to 1006 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:27,799 Speaker 2: go wrong. I'm so scared of what I'm going to lose. 1007 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 2: And it's true, you do the more that you get 1008 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 2: in your life, and especially when it comes to relationships, 1009 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,720 Speaker 2: when you feel like you've got, you know, the children 1010 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 2: that you've always dreamt of, let's say, or the partner 1011 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 2: that you've always dreamt of. The situation that if you've 1012 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,279 Speaker 2: come from nothing and you end up manifesting all the 1013 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:45,760 Speaker 2: things that you want in life, how do you detach 1014 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 2: from that fear of what if it all goes away? 1015 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 3: What if it all leaves me? 1016 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:54,879 Speaker 1: I think like that's where really becoming at peace with death, 1017 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:59,319 Speaker 1: because you can't live unless you face death. And there's 1018 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 1: this beautiful and it's like the idea is to stay 1019 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 1: in a constant departure while always arriving and it's pretty profound, 1020 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: but it's basically saying like as soon as we get, 1021 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,720 Speaker 1: we lose, Like that's the rhythm of life, and it's scary, 1022 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: very scary, And it's what I'm seeing in my own 1023 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 1: life too, where I'm like, I've now accumulated such a 1024 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 1: beautiful relationship, beautiful career, and beautiful team, and I'm like, 1025 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 1: this is so good to me. Yeah. True. So now 1026 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: once again my goal is getting out of my own 1027 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,360 Speaker 1: way and showing up every single day, because it always 1028 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 1: just goes back to that. I think that's what's so 1029 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 1: beautiful of having an artist's heart, of like living in 1030 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 1: the moments where you're already nostalgic for them, Like being 1031 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 1: presently nostalgic, I think is one of the most beautiful 1032 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 1: feelings I've ever had in my life, and as much 1033 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 1: as it's scary, just like hate and love are but 1034 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: of the same coin, just a different degree. Same with 1035 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 1: fear and love, like it's showing that you care, you know, 1036 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 1: it's just the other side of love. Because really, like 1037 00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 1: the idea of what I think society thinks of as 1038 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,480 Speaker 1: hate is actually just complete absence, like mind of you're 1039 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,200 Speaker 1: just not you don't even exist. That to me is 1040 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,439 Speaker 1: the most accurate form of like what we think hate 1041 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,840 Speaker 1: is like for me, hate is still a very fiery 1042 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 1: version of love and so and same with fear. It's 1043 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:17,120 Speaker 1: like it's showing that you care. And so once again, 1044 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:21,320 Speaker 1: that's where I always go back to, like documentation writing, 1045 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 1: like I love hearing my own thoughts, like I love writing, 1046 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:30,400 Speaker 1: like I love recording things. I think we are tainted 1047 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 1: in this world today because everything's being documented, But are 1048 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 1: the right things being doctrine know. 1049 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,359 Speaker 2: And Jennaline can actually do And I wanted to speak 1050 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,439 Speaker 2: about something else that you said, But when it comes 1051 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 2: to journaling, I feel it takes a while to actually 1052 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:48,840 Speaker 2: show up and strip back who like that person that 1053 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 2: you are writing as as just think you know, if 1054 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 2: you're writing as someone who thinks, just in case someone 1055 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 2: sees this, what am I writing? 1056 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 3: Just in case this is red one? Remember the full moments, 1057 00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 3: and so if you. 1058 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 2: Are writing from a place offers you will never see 1059 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 2: your true self. But like stripping that back, it can 1060 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,320 Speaker 2: be so scary to see what has been hiding in 1061 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 2: your heart and inside your mind and to really come 1062 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 2: to face with that. I think that's the only time 1063 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 2: when you get to that point, that's when you're actually starting, 1064 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 2: Like that is the point that you're starting, that's it. 1065 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 2: And what you were saying about fear and losing it, 1066 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,920 Speaker 2: about showing up, I think whenever I think about that way, 1067 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 2: because well, you were on the few people that I 1068 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,520 Speaker 2: have been able to talk about death with in that way. 1069 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 2: Me and you have had this conversation before every single 1070 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,719 Speaker 2: day since I have left home. Before that, I would 1071 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 2: have never I never used to even think about death. 1072 00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 2: I maybe thought about when my granddad passed away. That 1073 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,320 Speaker 2: was when I was young, far away feel so like 1074 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 2: something that I can relate to. And then when I 1075 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:44,759 Speaker 2: started studying the Vaders, and then when I moved away 1076 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:47,400 Speaker 2: from home, it was that that point, which by the 1077 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 2: way was over seven years ago. Every single day since 1078 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 2: that time I moved, I've thought about death the moment 1079 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,359 Speaker 2: that I wake up because I'm so far away from 1080 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 2: people because of my my The only reason I actually 1081 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 2: look at my phone is I'm like, let me just 1082 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 2: make sure everything's okay, because I'm not still yeah exactly, 1083 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,239 Speaker 2: I haven't got any messages like there is all that 1084 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,879 Speaker 2: I have had and there has not been one day 1085 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,360 Speaker 2: And I tell people that and they're like, that's a 1086 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 2: bit morbid, and I'm like, no, it has been the 1087 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 2: most freeing thing because we don't prepare for the things 1088 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 2: that are the most inevitable in life. There are four 1089 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:25,560 Speaker 2: things death, disease, birth, and something else which I'll find out. 1090 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 1: Creation or creativity or yes, maybe something. 1091 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 2: Something along the lines of that, but definitely death. Death 1092 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 2: is the one thing that definitely death. 1093 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 1: Death is one of the. 1094 00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 2: Things which is so certain, right, but we shy away 1095 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,920 Speaker 2: from it. Certain thing, it's the only certain thing. Yes, 1096 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,400 Speaker 2: it's the only certain thing that's going to happen. But no, 1097 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,280 Speaker 2: it's true, it is the only certain thing in life, 1098 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,439 Speaker 2: but it is something that we try and move away from. 1099 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 2: And it has been the biggest blessing to have that 1100 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 2: in my mind, because now when things are happening with 1101 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:56,800 Speaker 2: my family, when things are happening in my life that 1102 00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 2: are unexpected or that I don't know whether I'm going 1103 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 2: to be the I detached from it so much, thinking, 1104 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 2: you know what, there is nothing I can do. I 1105 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 2: am this side of the world, there is nothing I 1106 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,320 Speaker 2: can do. There's no physical way that I will know 1107 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 2: to be able to be there when anything happens. And 1108 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 2: the weird thing is when I let go of that 1109 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:17,399 Speaker 2: attachment and that fear, I have been there for every 1110 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,839 Speaker 2: single thing I needed to be there for. Somehow, when 1111 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 2: I wasn't even supposed to be there, I ended up there. 1112 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 2: Whenever anybody in my family went through something, Whenever somehow 1113 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 2: I've ended up there. And that was when I had 1114 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 2: fully realized that I just have no control over this. 1115 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 2: And when I left and the thought of death, I 1116 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,320 Speaker 2: remember when I realized that, yeah, right, I literally cannot 1117 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,480 Speaker 2: control this in any way, and I surrendered to that. 1118 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 2: And by the way, that took me pretty much crying 1119 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 2: every single week thinking about it. It took me going 1120 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 2: through a lot of emotions every single week of thinking 1121 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 2: about the possibilities of what can happen, because my mind 1122 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,319 Speaker 2: can run away like that a lot, and actually going 1123 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 2: through that. I remember, me and Jay have spoken about 1124 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,919 Speaker 2: this a lot where every time I think about certain 1125 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 2: in my life, I am very emotional. 1126 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 3: I cry, hence a good cry. 1127 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 2: I cry a lot, And every time I think about 1128 00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,600 Speaker 2: the possibilities or how I'm going to feel in those situations, 1129 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:12,440 Speaker 2: I try and stop myself from thinking about it. And 1130 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 2: Jay would be like the only way we're going to 1131 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 2: be able to be okay at the point that these 1132 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,799 Speaker 2: things happen is if we kind of live it through 1133 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 2: every single day slowly in our mind, like to keep 1134 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,520 Speaker 2: again consistency in practice. If we start training our mind 1135 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 2: to understand that this is a natural part of life, 1136 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 2: this is what happens. 1137 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,799 Speaker 1: It's just as beautiful. It's not the end. 1138 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 2: If you believe that it's not the end, and so 1139 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 2: constantly thinking about the people in your life, leaving the 1140 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:40,760 Speaker 2: people in your life. 1141 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 3: May not be there forever. 1142 00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 1: You know, do you remember the Land Before Time? No idea, 1143 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:48,840 Speaker 1: it's the Dinosaur movie. Oh yeah, yes, there was this 1144 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,320 Speaker 1: one scene and it's where like Littlefoot like loses his 1145 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: mom and the uncle or whatever is like, that's the 1146 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 1: thing with life. We don't all end up in the 1147 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 1: end together. And I was like, once again, how heartbreaking 1148 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 1: that is, but also how beautiful that is. No, it 1149 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 1: is so beautiful, so beautiful. 1150 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 2: And the fear that you were talking about of, you know, 1151 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 2: when you said you just end up showing up and 1152 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 2: when we're talking about losing things. The only way I've 1153 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 2: been able to manage that fear is by giving my 1154 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,840 Speaker 2: all to everybody that I love so deeply like to 1155 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 2: know that I have given my all to my mum, 1156 00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:24,800 Speaker 2: to my dad, to my grandma, whoever it is that 1157 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 2: I'm feeling those like the uncertainties about I'm like, well, 1158 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:32,440 Speaker 2: let me go one hundred percent into those relationships. Let 1159 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 2: me make every single year the best, better and better. 1160 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:36,759 Speaker 3: With our relationship. 1161 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 2: And so I think that's actually how I've lost the fear, 1162 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 2: by knowing that I will have no guilt after they leave, 1163 00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 2: by knowing that I have had that best interaction with them, 1164 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,440 Speaker 2: the best possible years that I could have with them, 1165 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 2: to like, yeah, to have that, to be able to 1166 00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 2: nourish that and know that stops my fear. And of 1167 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 2: course it still brings sadness, but the fear aspect is 1168 00:53:57,719 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 2: something which I think is debilitating, whereas sadness is something 1169 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 2: which I don't find sadness stabilitating in myself. I feel 1170 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,200 Speaker 2: like it's something that is an emotion I can release. 1171 00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,560 Speaker 2: But fear is something that can actually stop you from 1172 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 2: being or doing. And I think fear of even death 1173 00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,279 Speaker 2: can stop you from getting close to someone. Fear of 1174 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,720 Speaker 2: losing someone can stop you from harnessing a relationship with someone. 1175 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,480 Speaker 1: Because you just don't want to face them. You don't 1176 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,279 Speaker 1: want to face the death, not them, but the death. 1177 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 3: The death. 1178 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:24,440 Speaker 2: And I used to not call my at the beginning 1179 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:25,920 Speaker 2: when I used to miss my family. And this is 1180 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 2: such a minor example, but just to give you context, 1181 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 2: Like when I used to miss my parents, or I 1182 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 2: used to miss someone and I was upset about something, 1183 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 2: I wouldn't I wouldn't call them because I didn't want 1184 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:38,280 Speaker 2: I almost wanted to distance myself from it to prepare, 1185 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 2: so I could prepare, but also so I could like 1186 00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 2: pretend like it wasn't a thing, and I didn't want 1187 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 2: them to know I was upset. I didn't want to 1188 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 2: address the fact that it was something I was dealing with, 1189 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 2: and so distancing myself from them I thought made the 1190 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,800 Speaker 2: pain easier, but it obviously doesn't. It's it's but I 1191 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:58,760 Speaker 2: think that addressing the showing up is really what helped 1192 00:54:58,840 --> 00:54:59,840 Speaker 2: me get over that fear. 1193 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:02,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, And then you know, once you really start to 1194 00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:05,360 Speaker 1: think about death, you start to see it everywhere. You know, 1195 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 1: like every day there's a rebirth and a death. Like 1196 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 1: that's the beautiful thing about life. We see it in nature, 1197 00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 1: we see it in our animals, we see it in relationships, 1198 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 1: even we see it from a spiritual sense too, So 1199 00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 1: I think when you're not afraid of it, you can 1200 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 1: see that it has such a profound purpose and that 1201 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 1: we need it in order to create what we've created here, 1202 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:31,440 Speaker 1: to really have that. 1203 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,440 Speaker 2: Like I feel like yolo is a term that's used 1204 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:35,959 Speaker 2: way too much, but to honestly live that, I would 1205 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 2: hear you no, no, but I find it. 1206 00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:39,279 Speaker 3: I find it such a like. 1207 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 2: It's a term which we use very loosely. Yeah, but 1208 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:43,800 Speaker 2: it's something which actually, if you think about it, but 1209 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 2: that means you show up. You show up one hundred 1210 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 2: percent every single day. 1211 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:49,680 Speaker 1: My friend he was at a party. 1212 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, but like the essence of it, you know, 1213 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 3: it's something I know. 1214 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 2: I know. 1215 00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,360 Speaker 1: So my friend he was at a party and he 1216 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,000 Speaker 1: was talking to this guy and he was he was 1217 00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:03,919 Speaker 1: telling me about this story, and he was basically saying, 1218 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 1: you know, I felt guilty, you know in those moments 1219 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 1: where you were just kind of like saying nothing just 1220 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:08,960 Speaker 1: fill the air and you're just like, I don't even 1221 00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:10,400 Speaker 1: want to listen to me right now, like why am 1222 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,880 Speaker 1: I speaking? And you know, they finally end the conversation, 1223 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 1: and then a week later that that guy dies in 1224 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: a motorcycle crash, and he was like, if I would 1225 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:21,480 Speaker 1: have known that, like I was taking up some of 1226 00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:24,320 Speaker 1: his last moments on earth, I would have fucking mouthself 1227 00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:27,320 Speaker 1: silly and like made sure to have either an authentic 1228 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 1: connection with him or like let him go and do 1229 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 1: that with someone else. But it really does, like once again, 1230 00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:37,920 Speaker 1: death is the biggest perspective shift of ever I've ever 1231 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: experienced in my life. Like I wouldn't be who I 1232 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 1: am today if I didn't experience death and such a 1233 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: sad way. 1234 00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 3: And that's why I think I just want to like, 1235 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:48,680 Speaker 3: like we're talking about we're talking. 1236 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 1: About death, but sadness isn't sad, it's beautiful. Like I 1237 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 1: am so in love with sadness in the sense where 1238 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: it's like it shows how much we care and it's 1239 00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 1: so beautiful. 1240 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I've had to lent to embrace that 1241 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:01,719 Speaker 3: so much. 1242 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 2: And again, this is part of why I wanted to 1243 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:06,719 Speaker 2: do this, is because I feel things so deeply and 1244 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,920 Speaker 2: I am very emotional with how I feel them. But 1245 00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 2: I feel I feel From a young age, I suppressed 1246 00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 2: it a lot, and so when I started understanding myself 1247 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,680 Speaker 2: better and when I started feeling more comfortable in my 1248 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 2: own skin. It slowly started showing up in places I 1249 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 2: wasn't expecting me to, so I would end up crying 1250 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 2: when I when I really didn't want to, just like stub. 1251 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:31,919 Speaker 1: Your toe, stabbing my toe? Yeah, what is that? Yeah? 1252 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 2: And the more I felt I was connected to myself, 1253 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 2: the more I was in tuning my emotions, and the 1254 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 2: more I was able to feel in control. 1255 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 1: And yes, yes, yeah, it's never fun like having that 1256 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 1: anxiety attack, like right before you're supposed to shut up, 1257 00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 1: because you know you're like, oh no, there I go, 1258 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:51,520 Speaker 1: and you're like trying to reel yourself in like you're fishing. 1259 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 1: That's never fun as well. That's why I like when 1260 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 1: it comes up, if you can feel it, feel it, 1261 00:57:58,360 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 1: you know. 1262 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 3: I love what's your way of release? 1263 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:01,360 Speaker 1: Nethwork? 1264 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 3: You'll like if you to say you're going the most. 1265 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 1: So it's what I know the most. Yeah, breathwork it is. 1266 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,000 Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of variations of it, and 1267 00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: I fear when people after they hear this, they're going 1268 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 1: to google and some girls gonna go like and do 1269 00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:16,280 Speaker 1: like some weird breath it's. 1270 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:17,919 Speaker 3: The haden, the primal breath work. 1271 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 1: Well, the I I got trained by this guy. It's 1272 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 1: very simple. It's just breathing seventy percent into the lowest 1273 00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:26,720 Speaker 1: part of your belly, thirty percent to your chest and 1274 00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:29,560 Speaker 1: release and you can go as fast and intense or 1275 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 1: as slow as you want. And what's really cool is 1276 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 1: it's similar to meditation. Like you get to a point 1277 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 1: where you know, sometimes you already feel amazing and you're 1278 00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:39,240 Speaker 1: going into breathwork and you're just you barely do it 1279 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 1: because you're just like, I feel grounded right now. And 1280 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 1: that was the whole purpose of it. So I'm going 1281 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 1: to listen to this music and just vibe, or you're 1282 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 1: going into it just being like I gotta do it whatever. 1283 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 1: It's an active meditation. That's why I liked it because 1284 00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 1: it gives me something to do with my body, which 1285 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: I love and prefer. And I'll have this crazy cathartic 1286 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 1: experience and I'll start crying and so much comes out 1287 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 1: and I'm just like, well, that was a tusay I 1288 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 1: did not experience, yes, but like I guess that was 1289 00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:09,440 Speaker 1: supposed to happen. And I think that's that's what's so 1290 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:13,480 Speaker 1: also beautiful. Weirdly enough with trauma, where it's like it 1291 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,360 Speaker 1: comes out in these moments, and it feels so good 1292 00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 1: when you accept that it's coming, because you're like, I'm alive, 1293 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:23,040 Speaker 1: Like this feels so good. I care, this feels so good. 1294 00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:24,760 Speaker 1: I loved. This feels so good. 1295 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 3: Yes, And I think you're right. 1296 00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:29,000 Speaker 2: When we end up trying to we end up trying 1297 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:31,720 Speaker 2: to feel so numb that we try not to feel 1298 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,760 Speaker 2: at all. And there's so much in life because of everything. 1299 00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 1: I get that, so do I. I get that because 1300 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: there's so much to feel. 1301 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,960 Speaker 2: You hear negative things all the time. You're hearing so 1302 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:42,840 Speaker 2: much pain in the world, and so it's easier to 1303 00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 2: be numb. But it's but you can't grow being numb. 1304 00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:48,919 Speaker 2: You have to feel to be able to move. And again, 1305 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:52,439 Speaker 2: like I love the thing of emotions being energy in motion. 1306 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:54,720 Speaker 2: It's like you're meant to be releasing, you're meant to 1307 00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 2: be moving through And actually breath is if you think 1308 00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:00,960 Speaker 2: about breath is life and breath there's also the way 1309 01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:03,000 Speaker 2: that you control your emotions. If you think about when 1310 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,760 Speaker 2: you get sad or angry or anything, your breath changes 1311 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 2: with it. And in the same way, when you're able 1312 01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 2: to control your breath, will you use your breath in 1313 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:12,680 Speaker 2: the right way, it can help you to either suppress 1314 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 2: or release emotions. 1315 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: I learned that actually in acting because I had a 1316 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:20,040 Speaker 1: scene TMI, but it was not a scene that I 1317 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:23,240 Speaker 1: survived in literally, and so I had to go through 1318 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: that process of dying and you know, I'm doing the 1319 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 1: short breaths and I started to go into a panic. Yeah, 1320 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 1: and yes, Like it is so crazy how the body 1321 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:38,840 Speaker 1: is in so much more control than we realize in 1322 01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,840 Speaker 1: that sense where like the breath can really completely change 1323 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:46,000 Speaker 1: your emotional state. It is a profound even. 1324 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:46,880 Speaker 3: Just taking three deep breaths. 1325 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 2: Every time I think about how I'm feeling or if 1326 01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:51,160 Speaker 2: I'm getting overwhelmed, I'm like, take three deep breaths, and 1327 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,400 Speaker 2: it changes my entire day by doing those three breaths. 1328 01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:57,120 Speaker 1: Okay, it's so simple that you're just like every day, 1329 01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 1: you're just like dumb, dumb. Remind is that you need 1330 01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:03,240 Speaker 1: every single day? Right, Okay, so you are a breathwork person. 1331 01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:04,120 Speaker 3: Do you cry a lot? 1332 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,200 Speaker 1: Or is that not you do cry? Okay? Well, okay, 1333 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 1: the thing was is like I didn't, and then I 1334 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 1: was proud of that because I was like, I don't know, 1335 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,440 Speaker 1: and then I started to get jealous of like my 1336 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 1: friends who are so in tune with everything and could 1337 01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 1: just cry it like watching their friend perform or just 1338 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 1: or just watching a children. 1339 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 3: Wait, does this mean I don't care as much? 1340 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:30,479 Speaker 1: Because yeah, so then surprisingly, like the tools like breath 1341 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:34,200 Speaker 1: work or like yoga or meditation or writing, That's what 1342 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:36,920 Speaker 1: started to open my vessel up. And so now I 1343 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,600 Speaker 1: make it, weirdly enough a priority, Like any time and 1344 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:42,840 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm about to cry, I'm like, bring it, 1345 01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: bring out. I don't bring it like I'm ready, I'm here, 1346 01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna let's I'll play that music for you. But yeah, 1347 01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:52,400 Speaker 1: I mean I want it because you know, selfishly as 1348 01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:54,080 Speaker 1: an actress, like I want to be able to access that. 1349 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:57,880 Speaker 1: But also it's like you see that with children, you know, 1350 01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 1: then I feel like crying. They're like they just they 1351 01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 1: just go and I envy that, and I'm like, I 1352 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 1: want to be able to do that. So when I 1353 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 1: need to show up, I can, and I don't have 1354 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:11,000 Speaker 1: this fear of the worst parts of myself showing showing 1355 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 1: at the wrong time. Because we are ruled by what's 1356 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:17,600 Speaker 1: buried and remaining in us, in the deepest core, and 1357 01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:20,840 Speaker 1: so bringing those up in a space that's on your 1358 01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:25,800 Speaker 1: own time and safe is the key to really being 1359 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,640 Speaker 1: in power of yourself and like controlling your mind instead 1360 01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:30,320 Speaker 1: of it controlling you. 1361 01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:32,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, meditation was definitely that space for me. 1362 01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:36,360 Speaker 2: That's probably where I first started feeling most comfortable crying 1363 01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 2: because you're on your own, You're getting into a deepest 1364 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,280 Speaker 2: space by yourself. And also, I mean listening to John 1365 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 2: v I, there's a part of her and giving context 1366 01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,760 Speaker 2: to everyone. Janavie is one of my closest friends, but 1367 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:51,000 Speaker 2: she's also a meditation singer. 1368 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 3: She's a gift to life. 1369 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:56,000 Speaker 2: Her voice will just and again because I personally feel 1370 01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 2: the reason her voice hits so deeply is because she's 1371 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:02,200 Speaker 2: in alignment. She works to be in alignment all the time, 1372 01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:04,880 Speaker 2: and so her voice, you hear one note coming out 1373 01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 2: and it hits your heart to the car where you 1374 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:11,600 Speaker 2: are just pouring out all the things that you have 1375 01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 2: kept suppressing. 1376 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,560 Speaker 1: One lyric like I don't want to go around anymore, 1377 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 1: I was like, I feel this thing, Yeah, no more, 1378 01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to go around no more. Like I'm 1379 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:21,120 Speaker 1: good exactly. 1380 01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,720 Speaker 2: And when you end up sitting by yourself, like I 1381 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 2: feel like that's another for anyone who finds it difficult 1382 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 2: to release emotion, spend fifteen minutes just sitting by yourself 1383 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,280 Speaker 2: and listening to what's happening in your body. Just spend 1384 01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 2: fifteen minutes. Spend ten minutes a day doing that thing 1385 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:35,480 Speaker 2: for weeks. 1386 01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:37,160 Speaker 1: Is good enough to be honest, especially with the people 1387 01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 1: in like Ellen's Yeah, cities and whatever. But it's like 1388 01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:40,360 Speaker 1: that happening all you. 1389 01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:41,280 Speaker 3: Like, start there. 1390 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:43,800 Speaker 2: If you're finding yourself difficult, finding it difficult to release 1391 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,560 Speaker 2: that emotion, spend ten minutes with yourself every day with 1392 01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:48,440 Speaker 2: no one else around, and see what comes up. 1393 01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, what I found too is really a way I 1394 01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 1: trick myself is I stopped timing myself and I just 1395 01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 1: as soon as I wake up, I go out to 1396 01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:00,120 Speaker 1: the balcony and I just sit and almost that like 1397 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: dream sleepy state. And so I don't say it's perfect 1398 01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 1: because there's no timer, so I'm not trying to like 1399 01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:10,840 Speaker 1: complete an X amount of time. So it could be 1400 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 1: a nine minutes I'm there, I could be there for 1401 01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 1: thirty minutes. I have no idea. And that is like 1402 01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,800 Speaker 1: a really good trick for me, because as soon as 1403 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 1: I get my coffee and I start moving, it's it's 1404 01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 1: game over. I'm going to have to do it. A 1405 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 1: breath work bring changes into a different mode, a different mode. 1406 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 1: But right when you wake up, it's just like get yourself, 1407 01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:29,760 Speaker 1: just sit down, do nothing like that's it. That's it, 1408 01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:34,040 Speaker 1: because trying to go from doing stuff, doing something to 1409 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,240 Speaker 1: doing nothing is really hard. But when you're in that 1410 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 1: waking moments of life. 1411 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 3: It's the perfect. 1412 01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:40,320 Speaker 1: It's perfect to trick yourself. 1413 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 2: Just oh my god, I could talk to you about 1414 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 2: so much stuff, but I feel like I've taken off 1415 01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 2: so much of your time. 1416 01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:46,880 Speaker 3: Alreaday, but wait, I wanted to ask you. 1417 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:50,440 Speaker 2: So basically, I've categorized criers into like I think like 1418 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:51,400 Speaker 2: six categories. 1419 01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 1: So I want you to tell me. I want you 1420 01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 1: to tell me what kind. 1421 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:57,680 Speaker 2: Of crier you are and ideally give us your best 1422 01:04:57,800 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 2: version of your cry. 1423 01:04:58,600 --> 01:04:58,840 Speaker 1: Okay. 1424 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,360 Speaker 2: So there's one which is a loud, ugly crier, which 1425 01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 2: is then there's the breathless, which is just that's my sister, Okay. 1426 01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:09,680 Speaker 3: Then there's the snifflin s nutty. 1427 01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:11,560 Speaker 2: The one who's kind of like just blubbery and like 1428 01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:14,080 Speaker 2: all over the place there's like water coming from the eyes, 1429 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:18,120 Speaker 2: from the nose hole, every hole is just weeping. Then 1430 01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 2: there's the high pitch, you know when you suddenly like 1431 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:27,040 Speaker 2: go five pitches. So there's a high pitch. There's that 1432 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:30,120 Speaker 2: I'm not crying, you're crying. I have something in my 1433 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:32,800 Speaker 2: eye crier.

But I'm yeah, like it 1443 01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 1: starts out as it's the silent crying, silent like I 1444 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,960 Speaker 1: I just I love the feeling of the tears coming down. 1445 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,120 Speaker 1: It feels like it's washing things away. So I just 1446 01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,400 Speaker 1: I love to just sit there. And then. 1447 01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:14,280 Speaker 3: She's like. 1448 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 1: And I'm just like, you're okay. 1449 01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 2: I thought you would be a pretty crier.

See this is this is the 1459 01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 1: downside of Like it's being aware of like everything as 1460 01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 1: a tool, like every emotion as a tool. We have 1461 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 1: to look in the mirror when you're crying to be like, okay. 1462 01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:02,080 Speaker 2: Is that is that right? 1463 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:05,160 Speaker 1: Exactly? Like when I laugh? Like is that an authentic laugh? 1464 01:07:05,240 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 1: What's that? Like? How did how did I get here? 1465 01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:08,080 Speaker 3: Yourself? 1466 01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 1: Actually? Yeah, well when I first went to an acting class, 1467 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 1: I was like, I've been learning about this ship for years. Guys, like, 1468 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:16,920 Speaker 1: did you just make us meditate? Like what are we 1469 01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:19,600 Speaker 1: doing right now? Self awareness? Like I got this in 1470 01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 1: the bag, Like it was just more so the memory 1471 01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:24,520 Speaker 1: the lines that I was just not excited for. When 1472 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 1: was the last time that you cried. When was it? Oh? 1473 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 1: Is that embarrassing if I said, on the way here, 1474 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 1: I found this like I had just one teer. I 1475 01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:35,200 Speaker 1: can't there's this song. I give us no idea what 1476 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 1: it's it's from. It's from like some Indian tribe. I 1477 01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:41,440 Speaker 1: don't know. But you know the movie Brave the Redhead 1478 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 1: where she's like running on her horse. It's kind of 1479 01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,400 Speaker 1: like that where it's like no, no, no, no, no 1480 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,000 Speaker 1: no no. And I was driving through the canyon like, oh, 1481 01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:53,280 Speaker 1: I want a tambourine. I'm so happy that you cried 1482 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:58,760 Speaker 1: all the way. I just I love like feeling those 1483 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:01,680 Speaker 1: like beautiful moments to the extreme, you know, and I 1484 01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 1: and that's I think, what the What's I love so 1485 01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:08,520 Speaker 1: much about sadness is the most beautiful moments of my 1486 01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:11,800 Speaker 1: life have sadness in them. And it's like wow, you know. 1487 01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:15,520 Speaker 2: Well, nothing in this world is fully anything, right, Like 1488 01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:21,120 Speaker 2: there's always what you're saying, a juxtaposition of there's extreme 1489 01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 2: goodness and extreme whatever. I didn't even like to say 1490 01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:25,760 Speaker 2: badness or bad but there's always that. 1491 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:28,080 Speaker 1: It's like heart and cold, like, yes, how can you 1492 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:29,400 Speaker 1: define where cold is? 1493 01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:30,240 Speaker 3: You can't define it? 1494 01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:34,240 Speaker 1: You can't you can't define it. It's just a different 1495 01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:36,439 Speaker 1: degree of the same thing and not And I. 1496 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:39,000 Speaker 2: Think the important thing about that is not labeling it 1497 01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:42,320 Speaker 2: as being something that is bad or good, like having 1498 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:45,759 Speaker 2: what you said, like crying is beautiful, sadness is beautiful. 1499 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:48,799 Speaker 2: All those things that we have been trained and conditioned 1500 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 2: to believe are not good things are actually the things 1501 01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:55,280 Speaker 2: that we really need to come into our own. 1502 01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. And of course, like once you start, when you 1503 01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:00,559 Speaker 1: first start on that journey, it feels out of control. 1504 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:02,080 Speaker 1: And I think that's what a lot of people feel. 1505 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:04,320 Speaker 1: They're like, I don't understand because when I first started 1506 01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 1: to actually acknowledge everything and feel my emotions, I was 1507 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,760 Speaker 1: just I was terrified that this was what I was 1508 01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:12,960 Speaker 1: going to be for the rest of your life. But 1509 01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:17,320 Speaker 1: you then have this wonderful relationship with your emotions. I 1510 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 1: didn't even know it was possible. Yeah, I'm just like, 1511 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 1: this is wonderful. I want to because it's I want to, 1512 01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:27,320 Speaker 1: I want to feel, and it's proof that I care 1513 01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 1: and I want to care. And I think that's the 1514 01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:32,679 Speaker 1: connection there is, like, you know, like I feel because 1515 01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:34,559 Speaker 1: I want to care, because I want to see growth 1516 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 1: and evolution and our society and so to not feel 1517 01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:40,599 Speaker 1: would be the biggest crime in my opinion, But it's 1518 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,920 Speaker 1: also hard, and I think there is a place for 1519 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:48,240 Speaker 1: all of it. The compartmentalization, disassociation. I think there's places 1520 01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 1: for all of those things because those are tactically balanced. Yeah, 1521 01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:53,799 Speaker 1: and like that was also a way of your body 1522 01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 1: protecting yourself. 1523 01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 2: Definitely, there was a time and you need protection from that. 1524 01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 2: I think about that too, Like I've figured out mechanisms 1525 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,080 Speaker 2: of when I don't feel safe to actually cry, or 1526 01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:05,360 Speaker 2: when I don't feel like it's the right environment, or 1527 01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 2: when you just have to be a boss and you 1528 01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:09,120 Speaker 2: need to cry and get on with life, Like there 1529 01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:11,080 Speaker 2: was a time and place to do that, but then 1530 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 2: knowing that there's something in you that you need to 1531 01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,679 Speaker 2: process for later, like putting a bookmark there to think, Okay, 1532 01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:16,560 Speaker 2: this is what triggered me. 1533 01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:19,680 Speaker 1: Let's get into it later, but right now, we need 1534 01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 1: to get this done exactly. And then that's like you 1535 01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:24,559 Speaker 1: having a beautiful relationship with your child self and your 1536 01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 1: adult self being like okay, baby, like I got you. 1537 01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 1: We'll handle this later because like clearly that triggered the 1538 01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:32,320 Speaker 1: hell out of you. Yeah, but we have to go 1539 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:34,439 Speaker 1: and show up for X, Y and Z today and 1540 01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:36,439 Speaker 1: then when we come home we can process it exactly. 1541 01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:40,200 Speaker 1: And usually even the second that you have that conversation, 1542 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:42,760 Speaker 1: it'll show up when it needs to because then like 1543 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 1: your inner child isn't screaming at you that you're ignoring her. 1544 01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:47,400 Speaker 1: She trusts that you're going to show up. So it's 1545 01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:50,120 Speaker 1: like all the different versions exactly. You don't suddenly have 1546 01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:53,720 Speaker 1: outbursts because no, because it's like, oh, I hear you. 1547 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 1: I think once again, like parenting advice is life advice, 1548 01:10:57,000 --> 01:11:01,599 Speaker 1: it's also personal like self awareness. It's growth, like how 1549 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 1: we raise kids I think is a reflection of also 1550 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:07,000 Speaker 1: just like how we self teach ourselves and how we 1551 01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:09,720 Speaker 1: self regulate ourselves. And so I've always been fascinated with 1552 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,880 Speaker 1: like parenting and techniques and that because to do that 1553 01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:15,800 Speaker 1: for yourself and for your friends, Like sometimes I'm the mom, 1554 01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:18,800 Speaker 1: sometimes the Alley's the mom, like we trade off. Sometimes 1555 01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:21,400 Speaker 1: I'm the dad, like we don't know. And so being 1556 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:24,320 Speaker 1: able to put on different shoes I think really is 1557 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,920 Speaker 1: adaptability is the greatest skill on this planet. Adaptability and 1558 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:29,840 Speaker 1: being able to Like once again we were talking about 1559 01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:33,400 Speaker 1: in the beginning, like being able to healthily, not from 1560 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:37,599 Speaker 1: like a position of like need be able to insert 1561 01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 1: ourselves in a way that lifts the experience up, not 1562 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:44,080 Speaker 1: like molding to the people please their mentality. But it's like, 1563 01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:48,080 Speaker 1: what part of myself can can complete this moment? We 1564 01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:51,760 Speaker 1: have infinite parts of ourselves, Like it's literally infinite, which 1565 01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 1: is fantastic to know because then you know, with you know, 1566 01:11:54,840 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 1: things like podcasts and stuff. I don't fear that, you know. 1567 01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:01,320 Speaker 1: I also there is something I've learned too, is like 1568 01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:05,240 Speaker 1: if you don't keep giving out the information, God, I'm 1569 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:07,040 Speaker 1: gonna stop giving it to you. Oh yeah, you have 1570 01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:10,080 Speaker 1: to like keep the moment them going. Every time I 1571 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:11,920 Speaker 1: learned something, I'm like, I don't even know if I'm 1572 01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:14,000 Speaker 1: worthy to say this, but I'm a throw it out 1573 01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,479 Speaker 1: there anyways, just becaucause it's like, come to me. I'm 1574 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:18,919 Speaker 1: not afraid that that's the only thing I get. I'm 1575 01:12:18,960 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 1: able to teach. And then that's where you like empty 1576 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,760 Speaker 1: your your cup and you get filled again. 1577 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think sometimes we get scared of I know, 1578 01:12:26,920 --> 01:12:28,599 Speaker 2: for me, I'm like, but wait, what if I don't 1579 01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:29,639 Speaker 2: have any more to give? 1580 01:12:30,040 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 1: Is that feeling? 1581 01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:32,639 Speaker 3: You know, that feeling? What if I don't have any 1582 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:33,280 Speaker 3: more to share. 1583 01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:36,160 Speaker 2: So these are my things, and this is what I've learned, 1584 01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:37,840 Speaker 2: and then you and then in but that it is, 1585 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:40,320 Speaker 2: it is all ego. You end up collecting all these 1586 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:42,280 Speaker 2: things that you believe are yours, but none of it 1587 01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 2: was yours in the. 1588 01:12:42,760 --> 01:12:45,759 Speaker 1: First and then it becomes stagnant. And then the emotion. 1589 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:49,240 Speaker 1: I think with the same with our bodies, momentum creates momentum. 1590 01:12:49,280 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 1: It's the same with our wisdom and information, and like 1591 01:12:53,040 --> 01:12:56,600 Speaker 1: everything moves and fluxes and changes, and so letting that 1592 01:12:56,800 --> 01:12:59,960 Speaker 1: be the way you receive and give information and knowledge 1593 01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:05,160 Speaker 1: and wisdom is ultimately, once again, how you paradoxically learn 1594 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 1: how to be the teacher and. 1595 01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:09,280 Speaker 2: The student, the student all at the same time, all 1596 01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:11,400 Speaker 2: at the same time. I think if you if you're 1597 01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:13,639 Speaker 2: a teacher, you are never giving up being a student. 1598 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:15,880 Speaker 2: Never wait, and actually when you give up being a student, 1599 01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:17,160 Speaker 2: you stop being in the teacher. 1600 01:13:17,439 --> 01:13:19,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, po, exactly. 1601 01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:22,680 Speaker 2: Well, I've learned so much from you, and I'm so 1602 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 2: grateful that you came on.
